I know he has regular pauses regarding visiting the forum but I'm in quite urgent need of some springs so if anyone has contact with him, could you ask him to check his PM here. Thank you.

Anyone? It's been over a month since he has logged in.

yip i'm awaiting a reply (and package) aswell

I would be needing proper springs as the Spax springs which Spax labels "340/344/360" aren't suitable for 360!

Well.. they do fit but the coil thickness isn't adequate for the weight of the redblock, coil thickness is less than with stock 360 spring.

I was a bit sceptical when I installed those two years ago as I've seen probably ten times when stock 1.4/1.7 springs have been installed to 2.0 and coils have snapped quite soon.. Now two years later two coils snapped of from the co-driver's side spring.

You can see by eye that coil thickness equals 1.4/1.7 thickness http://www.elisanet.fi/mtn/images/autot/GLT/springs.jpg

My car needs to be get through MOT at august so I would need some new springs quite soon.

Current ride height in front is 325mm from the center of the wheel hub to the lowest edge of the arch and it's OK so I don't need insane lowering.. but I wouldn't wan't to install chopped stock springs either though if I can't get through classicswede in time I'll have to do that as temporary solution to get the car through MOT.

the strength or capability of the spring is more than the springs thickness
the spring itself can be thinner, it can still be stiffer than the original ones.

the Intraxx springs for example, these are much thinner than stock 360 springs and even thinner than 340 springs, but still; much stiffer

Well these weren't proper. The engine does weight a bit more with turbo stuff etc... but springs should've last more than two years. Those springs also bottomed out in high speed if there was any uneveness in the road so not stiff enough. When the car is standing on the ground there isn't much gap between the coils so bad design.

They were stiffer though than stock springs, not so wavy but load handling capabilities weren't adequate. Stiff doesn't equal strong as you can make stiff spring with many coils and thin coil thickness but that alone doesn't increase the strength of the spring steel.

He has been a bit quiet, I still havn't received my anti-roll bar. Its nearly 6 months now.

Judging from Facebook hes just had a baby?

No excuse if you ask me. Stick them on a boob and escape the house.
